Sailors aboard the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71) held a ceremony in the ship’s hangar bay Dec. 7 to commemorate the 72nd anniversary of the attack on

Pearl Harbor. During the solemn ceremony, Rear Adm. Kevin Kovacich, Carrier Strike Group (CSG) 12 commander, Capt. Daniel Grieco, Theodore Roosevelt’s commanding officer, Command Master Chief Bill Smalts, Theodore Roosevelt’s command master chief, and Interior Communications Electrician 3rd Class Alexis Russell, Theodore Roosevelt’s Blue Jacket of the Year, committed a wreath to the sea, honoring the men and women who lost their lives during the Japanese attack Dec. 7, 1941. Russell said that she was personally honored to be a part of the ceremony, which included a 21-gun salute. “I was actually born in Honolulu,” said Russell. “For me, personally, being given this opportunity not only highlights the Sailors who are remembered, but also highlights the unsettling grief that my home is reminded of every year on this date.” During the ceremony, Grieco said today’s Sailors are eternally connected to those who perished at Pearl Harbor as the Navy continues to defend freedom and democracy around the world. “We are the legacy of the unbound determination of people, such as the men on the deckplates, who fought to save their ships and shipmates,” said Grieco. “We owe it to them and the people we serve, not only to remember, but to be ready to forward deploy when our nation calls.” The ceremony started onboard Theodore Roosevelt at 7:55 a.m., the same time the Imperial Japanese Navy began bombarding Pearl Harbor. The attack killed 2,403, wounded 1,178 people and sunk or severely damaged eight battleships. The U.S. declared war on Japan the next day, officially entering World War II. Chief Information Systems Technician Joseph Wert was the lead coordinator for the commemoration. “The wreath laying is symbolic in that it draws much of its meaning from the burial at sea ceremony,” said Wert. “The ceremony allowed the crew to symbolically remember the deaths of those who perished at Pearl Harbor and honor their sacrifice by committing a symbol of that courage to the deep.” Wreath-laying ceremonies are a time-honored tradition, usually commemorating loss of life during battle. The wreath represents the honor, courage and commitment displayed by our fallen Sailors at Pearl Harbor. “The wreath itself is round and made of evergreen, symbolizing the eternal nature of our souls,” said Wert. “The red poinsettias symbolize the blood spilled and the courage displayed. The sash compels us to remember Pearl Harbor forever and to teach our children its hard-learned lessons.” The Sailors of Theodore Roosevelt continue to honor those killed or wounded at Pearl Harbor with their dedication to duty as they continue conducting carrier qualifications and prepare for future deployments.

In the ship’s foc’sle stands a portrait of a brawny Sailor, with his cover cocked to the side and a pipe in his

mouth. He controls the helm as fierce emerald waves crash behind him. De-spite the chaotic scene, the mighty Pop-eye stands strong and proud over Deck department’s space. Seaman Marlena Peter, through unex-pected circumstances and a gift for paint-ing, is the artist who gives USS Theo-dore Roosevelt (CVN 71) its splash of color. Continued on next page

mcsn Bounome chanphouang

Chief Boatswain’s Mate Edmundo Brantes wanted a mural of two crossed anchors on the deck plates of the Deck department’s office, but the Sailor who sketched out the anchors was in the process of transferring. One of Peter’s friends noticed her doodling in a sketchbook and referred Peter to Brantes. Peter agreed to help com-plete the painting. Another shipmate referred Peter to Air department’s V-3 division months later to paint the Aviation Boat-swain’s Mate (Handling) rating insignia on their door. Since then, word has spread about Peter’s art work and requests from other departments have been coming in left and right. “I feel like I blew up,” said Peter. “I had no idea my job could take me right here and that I would be do-ing this every day. I never thought I could be this good through the eyes of other people.” Brantes saw the opportunity for her to put her artistic talent to use after departments began requesting more murals all over the ship. Now Peter has a waiting list of requests and is temporarily assigned to the departments she paints for. “Seaman Peters, she’s extremely talented,” said Brantes. “Why not allow somebody with such phenom-enal talent to go out and do phenomenal things for this great nation and this great ship. Her artwork is spec-tacular, and it builds morale throughout the ship. These murals will be here for many years to come. She’s going to leave her legacy aboard USS Theodore Roosevelt.” Brantes lets Peter manage her own time allowing Peter to paint as late or as early as she wants. “This is pretty much my job,” said Peter. “I do paint as much as I can everyday, but if I’m not painting, I usually do deck work. I never seek out people. When I’m painting in a busy area a lot of people approach me. They come with either a picture or an idea.” Peter has been painting ever since she was a child and said she loves to paint a variety of styles to improve her craft and reach a broader audience. “One of the coolest requests I have is from reactor,” she said. “They want to make their people into charac-ters from old animes like Dragon Ball Z, Johnny Bravo and Speed Racer. It will be cool because it’s going to be down on the seventh deck where only they can see and take pride in it.” One of Peter’s favorite project’s was painting the command master chief insignia outside Command Mas-ter Chief Bill Smalts’ door. “It was really heartfelt when the CMC gave me a coin for doing the mural outside his door,” said Peter. “He doesn’t give those out a lot.” When Peter is on a job, it’s just her and her canvas. “I’m usually by myself without any supervision, I feel really relaxed,” she said. “I like getting through certain pieces a day. It keeps me really sane. I can just tune out a lot of stuff, plug an earphone in one ear and just go at it.” Never in her wildest dreams did Peter imagine she would be an undesignated Seaman still doing what she loves. Being an artist. The mural of Popeye is just one of the many paintings Marlena Peter will leave behind.

s-3 division provides necessiTiesand luxuries while ouT To sea

A dreary-eyed Sailor wakes, crawls out of his rack and staggers toward the head. Everything is going as usual as

the Sailor cleans up . While searching through his bag, the Sailor fumbles and drops his tooth-brush. The toothbrush falls to the floor and the Sailor’s attitude follows suit, going from cheerful to cranky. Thankfully, USS Theodore Roosevelt’s (CVN 71) Supply department’s S-3 division is here to make life a little easier while being underway. S-3 division’s ship’s servicemen work in the barbershop, Rough Rider Trading Post, laundry, The Big Sip, and vending machines. They are also in charge of handling money. “Stepping into the Rough Rider Trading Post is like stepping out of the ship,” said Ship’s Serviceman Seaman Roberto Huizar. “For those five or ten minutes, they are able to get what they want. This makes customers happy and is also what we love to do.” The Rough Rider Trading Post sells nu-merous items including toiletries, snacks and various clothing items. “S-3 does a great job in keeping all of us happy,” said Hospital Corpsman 3rd Class Tim-othy Hatfield. “I have seen them when they are stressed with the day’s work, and it is appreci-ated from all ranks.” Since its grand opening, the Trading Post has had a steady stream of Sailors return every day. S-3 provides the option of two different

stores. The Rough Rider Trading Post is open from 8:30 a.m. until 10:00 p.m., and the small-er Fly By is open from 8:00 p.m. until 12:00 a.m. “S-3 is doing all it can to improve morale aboard the ship,” said Ship’s Serviceman Sea-man Joe Albea. “The Trading Post is currently looking to incorporate a new design resembling the Navy Exchange stores. We are also trying to bring better snacks and electronic items such as iPods, iPads, and many other items to the ship store, to provide more options in a Sailor’s daily life.” The Trading Post is not the only service provided by S-3. Sailors can wash and dry clothes in the laundry room provided by S-3, and although laundry may be a chore at home, it can provide a short break from work while underway. “It may be as simple as having a clean set of clothes,” said Ship’s Serviceman 2nd Class Lollita Wilson, “but it is the simple things in life that count the most.” The ship’s barbershop hours are 9 a.m. until 8 p.m., Monday through Saturday. The space has the décor of an old fashioned barbershop. Sailors can take a moment out of their day and relax for a few minutes while waiting for their turn in the chair. The expertly trained Sailors can tailor any style of hair, within regulations, while providing genuine conversation. “We make sure we keep people in regula-tions,” said Ship’s Serviceman Seaman David Souther. “The barber shop gives more though.

We play music to create a good environment and we talk a little bit about everything, which gives it that out-in-town feel while keeping it military.” TR’s The Big Sip coffee shop helps Sailors get through the long workdays while underway, providing coffee made from authentic Star-bucks coffee beans. The coffee shop boasts a hefty menu that blends coffee, flavors and other unique espresso combinations. “The products provided by S-3 are a con-nection to the outside world,” said Culinary Specialist 3rd Class Ana Alenjandro. “We depend on them for so much, I hope they know how valuable what they do is and we appreciate it.” Being on a ship far from land may not give Sailors all the options they have while at home, but S-3 tries to ease the burden. “It is strange to think, while on a ship we are able to get Starbucks,” said Ship’s Service-man 3rd Class Tamara Pope. “When people come to The Big Sip it provides them with one of the items they enjoy while on shore. When they leave with their coffee they are happy, and happiness is like a smile, it is contagious to those around you.” Sailors morale may ebb and flow like the tide while stationed aboard any ship, but S-3’s services and products give Sailors the simple comforts that make being out to see a little more manageable.

sTaying on Track Your healthy dietary intentions most likely flew out the win-dow after waiting in a chow line for 30 minutes or more. To make matters worse, the delicious cookies, cake and ice cream are literally piled high waiting for their next victim. some people say starting a diet is the hardest part, the writ-ers on helpguide.org, however, would beg to differ. with more than 60% of diets failing within the first week it would seem starting the diet isn’t the issue as much as maintaining it. fear not, we’re here to guide you through the pastry filled obstacle courses and the carrot cake cadavers that try to attack your waistline on a daily basis.

Break iT down

• Don’t count calories and don’t measure portions.

• Start off slowly making gradual changes.

• Include water and exercise in your daily routine

• Moderation is the key.

don’t look at these tips as on and off short term goals. make a sustainable health plan and stick to it. make sure that you actually enjoy your food and exercise and you’ll be one step closer to living a long and healthy life.

tip 1 don’t count calories and try not to measure your portion sizes. it goes against everything we are taught about diets, but bear with me. The idea is to eat a variety of foods that are healthy, not limit the amount of food you are eating.

tip 2Don’t dive in head first. Start with small changes to your eating habits and add more over time. swap out your daily burger at lunch for a salad full of veggies. eat some fruit for a snack instead of a candy bar. every small change makes a big difference.

tip 3included in your food groups should be water and exercise. often when you feel hungry, get tired or get a headache it’s due to de-hydration. Water is also essential to flushing toxins and waste out of your body. for exercise, do anything that you enjoy that makes you move. it doesn’t need to be intensive or time consuming. again a little each day helps.

tip 4moderation is the key to a happy, healthy diet. don’t beat yourself up over eating those fries or drinking that cafe mocha. you can have those things, just not on a daily basis. Try to limit those high fat foods to once per week, and enjoy yourself when you do indulge.

get moving tRYthis

WhILE UNDERWaY...eaT This, noT ThaT!it can be tempting, while underway, to eat comfort foods on those stressful days, and it’s ok to splurge every now and then, but be smart. There are plenty of options to satisfy those cravings. we all love chicken day, but piling your plate sky-high with fried chicken will only expand your waistline. you can still enjoy fried chicken, but take a few less pieces and throw them on top of a bed of lettuce. It will fill you up but dramatically cut calories.

everyone loves a cookie, but this one has a healthy twist. Try this paleo version of the chocolate chip and maca-damia nut cookie, which has no wheat or added sugar in it. it is better for the waistline and we are sure santa will still enjoy it.

COOKIES FOR SaNtaingredienTs• 2 1/2 cups almond flour• 2 tablespoons coconut flour• 2/3 cups unsweetened shredded coconut• 1 teaspoon baking soda• 1/2 cup coconut oil (melted)• 1/4 cup RAW honey (melted)• 3 whisked eggs (include yolks)• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract• 2/3 cup roasted macadamia nuts• 2/3 cup chocolate chips• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

direcTions1. preheat oven to 350 degrees.2. cover baking sheets with aluminum foil and set aside.3. Mix dry ingredients together (almond flour, coconut flour, shredded coconut, baking soda, sea salt)4. mix wet ingredients together (coconut oil, honey, eggs, vanilla extract)5. pour wet ingredients into your dry ingredients and mix well.6. fold in macadamia nuts and chocolate chips to mix ture.7. grab 2 tablespoons worth of mixture and turn mixture into a ball. Place on baking sheet and flatten the ball mixture with your hand (to create a cookie shape).8. once mixture is all gone and cookies are ready to be baked, place baking sheets in the oven for about 18- 20 minutes [check at around minute 16 to make sure bottom of cookies are not burning]9. let cool and enjoy! so yummy!

tR FItNESS SChEDULEThe same old routine can get boring. mix it up with group classes offered on the ship while underway.

from uss Theodore roosevelThappy holidays

As the year ends, Sailors take a mo-ment to celebrate the year, their shipmates, great food and fun.

The annual holiday party offeredTheodore Roosevelt’s crew a chance to kick back and enjoy each other’s company in a relaxed environment with plenty of dancing and great door prizes. The crew also celebrated Thanksgiving onboard Theodore Roosevelt with delicious food cooked by the ship’s culinary special-ists. Families were welcomed to join their Sailors, who were standing duty, for dinner that day.

MAYPORT, Fla (NNS) -- The Mayport community welcomed over 350 new neighbors to Northeast Florida when the USS New York (LPD 21) changed homeport from Naval Station Norfolk to Naval Station Mayport Dec. 6. USS New York is one of three ships that make up Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group (ARG)the Navy is moving from Norfolk, Va., to Mayport, Fla. The other two ships - USS Iwo Jima (LHD-7) and USS Fort McHenry (LSD-45) - are slated to arrive as early as 2014. The three ships will bulk up the Navy’s fleet at Mayport, as the station’s frigates are retiring. The USS Underwood and the USS Klakring were decommissioned in March. According to U.S. Rep. Alder Crenshaw, the move is a win-win situation for the Navy and the Mayport community.

“As Congress deals with very difficult budget decisions, this is promising news for national security and the First Coast,” Crenshaw said in a statement. “This first phase of the amphibious ready group move to Mayport underscores the Navy’s commitment to a strategic dispersal of assets - a strategy I have long advocated on Capitol Hill.” Although leaving Hampton Roads was difficult, maritime strategy is the main job for the new ship. “This is just the first of three ships going down there to make sure that Mayport remains that second strategic homeport for the fleet,” he said “There’s a big part of us that didn’t want to leave Hampton Roads, at the same time, we’re very excited to be a part of the Mayport family.”

Many Navy families had the daunting task of moving from Norfolk to Mayport in a short amount of time. According to Operations Specialist 2nd Class Thomas Devore, it was tough moving suddenly but the many activities offered on Naval Station Mayport and the surrounding areas are worth the stress of moving to a new area. Amphibious ships like USS New York provide the nation a crisis response capability and demonstrate the Navy-Marine Corps team in action. The Navy is committed to strategic dispersal and at least two viable East Coast surface

ship homeports as well as the preservation of the ship repair industrial base in the Mayport area. According to Naval Station Mayport Commanding Officer Capt. Wesley McCall the addition of up to 2,000 families to the area, after all is said and done will be a boost for national defense and to the economy of Mayport.

DILI, Timor-Leste (NNS) -- Seabees assigned to Naval Mobile Construction Battalion (NMCB) 3’s Construction Civic Action Detail (CCAD) in Timor-Leste helped ring in the holiday season for 1,200 Timorese children by volunteering Dec. 2 at a play and gift exchange sponsored by the East Timor Rotary District Conference. Seabees helped the organization setup, play sports, hand out gifts, prepare food and read during the annual event that according lead coordinator Daryl Mills is the only one of its kind in Timor-Leste. “We’ve been doing this for ten years now,” said Mills. “Seabees have participated every year since they arrived to Timor, about five years now. They are a lot of help.” Although open to everyone and free of cost, families benefiting from the free event are typically orphaned or from families in

need. Maria Jose, a mother of two who has attended the seasonal exchange for the past four years, said the Seabees helped rally the Holiday spirit for her home. “They brought the holiday atmosphere to my kids,” said Jose. “It makes me very happy to see my kids so excited and to get presents. Hopefully, they continue this every year.” According to Chief Utilitiesman Miguel Fernandez, NMCB 3’s Timor-Leste CCAD assistant officer in charge, volunteering was an excellent way to show the community that the Seabees care for their families and future. “I am amazed to see the blessings the rotary club is doing here in Timor,” he said. “They bring joy every year to thousands of children. It’s a true testimony to their never ending goal to improve lives. I’m glad we could be a part of it.”
